Episode Details

Grace Tame has issued a heartfelt clarification after her recent comments sparked controversy, emphasizing that she stands unequivocally with all survivors of sexual violence — including Israeli and Jewish survivors — regardless of background. She apologized for not making her position clearer earlier, addressing criticism over remarks made during a February rally and a radio interview where she questioned narratives around sexual violence during the October 7th attacks. While citing a Human Rights Watch report that found no evidence of mass rape, she firmly rejected claims that she dismissed individual survivor accounts, affirming belief in legitimate allegations of rape and gang rape. Tame acknowledged her statements may have been misinterpreted and expressed sincere regret for any harm caused, while also noting that a UN report later confirmed credible evidence of conflict-related sexual violence during those attacks.
